Four Blacks Quit TCU Grid Team
Fort Worth Texas AP New TCU coach Jim Pittman announced four black players, all starters, quit over lack of social activity at the Southwest Conference school. Sophomores Larry Dibbles Raymond Rhodes Hodges Mitchell and Ervin Garnett planned to transfer to Florida State for regular social opportunities. Rhodes was TCU's leading rusher in 1970 and Mitchell led SWC in punt returns. Garnett started the first four games before injuries. Three other black players remain at TCU. Pittman cited team unity and noted no complaints about coaches or rules, and mentioned his dress code restricting facial hair. He learned of the discontent after returning from a West Texas recruiting trip.
